How does cross posting work? (self.lemmy_ca_support)

Hi! From lemmy.ca I subscribed and posted on a lemmy.world hosted community (I subscribed a couple of days ago), after posting I went to lemmy.world and I cannot see my post.

Is there a delay in sharing information between servers? Or is this expected behaviour?

I also noticed that the community related information has different values, specifically the number of subscribes, on lemmy.world it says the community has 5k but on lemmy.ca it says 109. Is 109 the number of lemmy.ca subscribers to the community?

Cheers!

There is a delay between when Lemmyworld syncs the post and you posting it. Normally it is short and thus would appear almost immediately, but considering the sudden increase in users by more than 40%, their server is having a very rough time right now. Expect this to continue until their servers get upgrade or traffic slows a bit.

Your third paragraph is correct. 109 is the number of lemmy.ca subscriber count to that community.
